->''Simple logic then dictated the conclusion: [[LaserGuidedKarma Every person's suffering is indicative of the measure of their guilt in the eyes of God.]] In the abstract, this conclusion appeared inescapable, logically imperative and theologically satisfying. \\
But what thus appeared to be theologically self-evident and unassailable in the abstract was often in radical tension with [[RealityEnsues actual human experience]]. There were those whose godliness was genuine, whose moral character was upright and who had kept themselves from great transgression, but who nonetheless were made to suffer bitterly (see, e.g., Ps 73). For these the self-evident theology brought no consolation and offered no guidance.''

->''I wanted him to reawaken the evil in my heart. I wanted him to return me to the way I was before. I was the perfect warrior, cold and ruthless. I lived by my strength alone, uninhibited by foolish emotion.... but slowly over the years I became one of you. My quest for greatness gradually giving way to this life of mediocrity. I awoke one day to find I had settled down, formed a family, I had even grown quite fond of them. Would you believe I almost started to think the Earth was a nice place to live. You understand now Kakarot? That's why I needed Babidi to set me free. By releasing the evil in my heart he has freed me of the petty attachments... and I have to say it feels pretty good.''
